I’ve never had that issue, nor have I seen it. Have you actually “tested” your RAM? Why is there a blue checkdisk screen after a base install? Sounds like there’s some hardware issues. I’d look into that first.

Well, reason why im here is because im looking around trying to figure out how to resolve my prob. Im getting that kind of error but not when im in windows itself.

I just reformatted my pc and right after the page where there runs a blue check disk screen on one of my harddisk(not the main one), it will prompt me that its gonna prepare setting up the new windows copy, but before i can even see its setting itself up, theres gonna be a mini popup window saying that “Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API”…

my rams are all fine… (even tried removing one and the other just to check) my powersupply box is new. have u encountered this prob before?

The NT kernel files that are supplied with this patch are now rather old: dated from year 2005. It is likely that more recent Microsoft updates and hotfixes are upgrading the kernel to a more recent version that (unfortunately ) appears to lack this hibernate fix. I also have the hibernate problem, and my choices appear to be to either replace my current kernel with this “fixed version” that almost 3 years old, or stay with the current newer version of the kernel and suffer with the hibernate problem.

I agree – I have 2 laptops with the same issue installed from a SP2 disk.
It appears that the kernel files were updated in Feb’07 & they have the bug back in them.
I too do not want to go back to ‘05 files – I imagine this is just an elaborate way of getting you to use Vista ;-)

Anyone else tried this?

My issue never came back. I’ve never tried it.

I have a Dell Latitude D620 here, and after upgrading to 2GB, I had exactly the same hassle. The laptop would wake up in my bag after getting off a train or bus, and get really hot. Thanks for the info.

Awesome! Glad I could help.

I too installed the fix. It worked for 2 days and then the problem came back.

It now refuses to hibernate ever, and additionally keeps changing my power options to “do nothing” every time i try to hibernate.

The fix may work for some, but not for all.

That’s weird. Try searching Google for more information, as I don’t know why it would be doing this. Have you tried reinstalling the Operating System?

You probably need to reinstall the OS from scratch and install SP2 or slipstream SP2 into your current Windows XP SP1 disk and install that (so that it installs SP2 when installing the OS).

Let me know if you have any questions.

I’m getting this error on a system that has been thrown at me to repair.

Trouble is, it only has 512Mb, and the error is occurring during a repair install, not during hibernation.

Same here. I just had this littel 10″ VAIO brought in on Saturday. 512MB, Only had SP1. So I tried to install SP2. It failed while I wasn’t watching and backed out. I then tried again and kept a closer eye on it. It failed, backed out, but not completely. After rebooting, the system claimed to be SP2 but various things were missing (Security center, enhanced Wireless functionality). So I figured I’d do a repair install with a SP2 disk. Came in this morning and the system is constantly rebooting with this error.

Did you ever figure it out?
